5 1/2 months out from surgery, 90 pounds down, working out regularly. Feeling great! I guess I started to feel a little too good today. Tried some bread with some beef, got seriously slimed. First experience of this kind and hopefully, I won't repeat it. Feels absolutely awful. Like a river of saliva in my mouth and throat. Thought it was curtains for me.

lol, sliming is bad. I am 26 months post op, and luckily I slimed 6 times only, eveytime but 1 was in the first 6 months. It might happen again, it sneaks up on you. Texture did it to me.. beef jerky! Ack!

It's a very unpleasant expirence! It can happen post op if you don't chew we'll enough, or you sleeve doesn't like the texture, or you eat a little too much. You can feel like something is stuck in your throat, and your body tries to lubricate the stuck food out, and you form thick salavia to move the food through. Then you can throw up slimy saliva balls. It's horrid! Once you know your sleeve its easier to avoid. Seems to happen in the fist six months primarily.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
